I can't seem to get the Beta open. What do I use for this one exactly? I tried GZDOOM with Doom Launcher.

@galvahad: Are you using the latest revision of GZDoom? (ideally it should be 3.6.0 or later)

I saw the review and i agree with a lot of points that Icarus made.

Don't get me wrong OP, i loved your mod, but i made some changes...(please don't hate me)

I uploaded and Edited version that removes the Pickup effects, both from coins and from Powerspheres, it's better on the eyes now :D

@vddicted: I don't hate you, I just disagree with flat out removing the pickup and power flashes since it kinda removes a bit of visual polish, I am going to go with reducing the visual intensity of the powerup's color and making the treasure pickup flashes transparent, that will resolve the two problems he noted without sacrificing polish. Polish and good gameplay is kinda important in making a mod like mine having a snowball's chance in hell of standing out in comparison to the insanely stiff competition I'm going up against. Also allow me to let all of you guys in on a secret: One of the handful of core inspirations for my mod is classic Konami arcade games.

@Master O: Thank you for notifiying me. Also I noticed your tiny Big Core Mark I avatar.

hey, thanks for taking notice on my changes... and i agree with you, polish is an important step to making a mod like yours, i'm not good at making art/sprites, i just messed up the things that kept me from playing futher.

I really apreciate your work, and i'm looking forward for the updates :D

Spoiler: Beta 1.3
You know, the recent image restrictions are going to be kinda hard to work around. Anyways the newest version of the Mod is in the OP as usual. Also the mod currently has a total of 25 maps, not bad so far.

Even though the restrictions pretty much amount to "please use thumbnails and don't embed huge images"? :?
